Climatology of High-Latitude Air Pollution as Illustrated by Fairbanks and Anchorage, Alaska
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High latitude communities frequently have severe air pollution problems. The usual situation is the release of moderate amounts of pollutants into an atmosphere with extremely poor dispersion. The poor dispersion is in ...
Quasi-Equilibrium Temperature Differences between Radiating Ice Crystals and the Surrounding Air
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A previous attempt to calculate the temperature gradient around a growing ice crystal in clear air started with the radiation budget of the crystal plus the assumption that the measured frost point temperature (about 2C ...
Winter Pressure Systems and Ice Fog in Fairbanks, Alaska
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The production of the low temperatures which are responsible for ice fog in inhabited areas of interior Alaska would appear to be a classic example of clear sky radiative cooling under nearly polar night conditions. However, ...
